That’s the reason Ed is ALWAYS our recommended professional to our clients. We know that Heartland Home Inspections will treat our clients right and assist us in protecting their best interest.

Ed has deep knowledge of all things structural, mechanical and electrical. He is extremely thorough. He inspects everything and produces a report (ours were 92 and 66 pages respectively) with a tremendous amount of detail. This is very helpful when working with the sellers on what repairs you expect them to either perform or reimburse you for. The thing I liked best about him, however, was the way he worked with us. We accompanied Ed on the inspection (a practice I would highly recommend, regardless of what inspector you use) and he took time to explain everything he was doing. What he was looking for. What things were good and bad (and why).

We accompanied Ed on the inspection (a practice I would highly recommend, regardless of what inspector you use) and he took time to explain everything he was doing. What he was looking for. What things were good and bad (and why). He gave us numerous tips on maintenance, whether professional or do-it-yourself. My wife and I were suburbanites and had never had to deal with well water, septic or heating oil and he took the time to educate us. He gave us all the time we wanted and answered all our questions fully and understandably. When purchasing a new home, I had the pleasure of working with Ed twice in the last month or so. Twice because he uncovered some serious issues with the first house we had a contract on which saved us from making a terrible mistake that would have cost us tens of thousands of dollars and years of headaches. The second house went much better. I would (and have) recommended Ed to anyone. He was on time, professional, thorough, knowledgeable and has a great bedside manner. I wouldn’t use anyone else, given the opportunity.

As first time home buyers we decided to go with Heartland Inspections since the reviews looked great online and our realtor also suggested them. Ed answered my initial call and was extremely friendly, he even responded quick via text when I had questions pre inspection. Lee was our inspector and I can not say enough great things about him! Lee showed up early, was very personable, extremely informative and walked us through everything he was looking at. We will be highly recommending this inspection company going forward.

Could not be happier! Working with Lee and everyone at Heartland has been a wonderful experience. Prior to having the inspection Lee kept us informed and prepared us for the process. At the inspection he was meticulous in inspecting the home for us. He took notes, photos, and explained everything to me in simple terms so I could truly understand what was going on with our home. He gave suggestions on how to fix a problem that was really an easy fix. The report was in before the deadline and full of detail not a stone left unturned.

We had no questions or concerns about our decision to purchase the home as Lee and his team helped us go into the deal with eyes wide open. I recommended them to my in-laws and they loved them just as much! They receive our highest recommendation!

These guys are great and very knowledgeable. Not only your going to get an inspection, you’ll receive a little education in property inspections. Lee, expressed he formally worked in the education system and that you can tell. He has a passion for teaching even in the likes of a properly inspection. Great experience. I received my report with in 24hrs! Thank you Heartland

Ed was an absolute asset to have on my side for my first time home buying adventure. His report was second to none in quality and easy to read and digest. I 100 percent recommend ed and his team for all inspection needs. Nothing better than quality work at a good price and sticking with local people who are our neighbors. Thanks again Ed!

Lee really took the time to check every little thing, and explain everything he was doing and why. Being a first time home buyer I really appreciated how patient and knowledgeable he was!

I highly recommend Heartland Home Inspections. Lee and Ed are highly knowledgeable, customer focused, and true professionals. The overall experience was next level compared to other home inspectors I’ve had previously.

Ed was great. He was very thorough and delivered a detailed report quickly. Ed was early the day of inspection in order to beat the snow storm and check the foundation, roof and chimneys.

Purchasing a home as we all know is an overwhelming experience. However, when my fiancé and I found Ed, the owner of Heartland Home Inspections, all of our concerns were solved, answered and addressed in a manner which was extremely professional, but simple to understand. As we are first time home buyers.

Purchasing a home as we all know is an overwhelming experience. However, when my fiancé and I found Ed, the owner of Heartland Home Inspections, all of our concerns were solved, answered, and addressed in a manner that was extremely professional, but simple to understand. As we are first time home buyers.

His inspection report was extremely comprehensive, which consisted of high definition photos of not only just Potential areas of concern but photos of what it should look like with the proper remediation.

This was amazing for us and our representation which has assisted us greatly as first-time buyers.

He answered all our questions, showed us everything from the main gas shut off, to tips which help reduce your expenses during the few hours we spent together at the inspection.

He and the team at heartland home inspections were always a simple phone call or text message away if we had any questions and on the day of the inspection, were early and didn’t even say a word about the cold weather/ light rain.

My fiancé and I couldn’t have found anyone better to work with.

If you are a first-time buyer like me and are nervous about the inspection, do yourself a favor and hire Ed Novak from Heartland Home Inspections. It was one of the best investments we made.

Exceptional Home Inspector. Ed has deep knowledge of all things structural, mechanical and electrical. He is extremely thorough.

This is very helpful when working with the sellers on what repairs you expect …

Heartland Home Inspections did a great job when giving me a first time home inspection. They were very professional, informative, and did a fantastic job all around. Pricing was great especially for everything they had found. A house might look great but until you have it inspected you never know. Heartland home inspections is definitely the best quality and price that you will find when it comes to home inspections.

I have used Heartland Home Inspections for two different properties. I can say that Ed was extremely professional, honest, and helpful during the entire process. He found things above and beyond a typical home inspection, and offered advice on how to go about fixing various issues that were found in the home. I would absolutely use Ed again and would recommend him to anyone who needs a home inspection.

DAN H. | Google Review

Great service! He is very experienced and knows what to look for that will provide a very thorough/complete inspection. I walked the inspection with him and learned a lot from the experience. He explained what he was looking for and why he thought something was an issue of concern or not. I was also surprised how quickly we received our inspection report. Should I need another inspection, I will use him again, and would recommend him to others as well!

Ed is absolutely amazing! Extremely professional; very very knowledgeable; he goes above and beyond for his clients! There’s no one else you should trust for your inspections than Ed! There’s never a bad time for him; if you call he is always willing ready and able to answer your questions but most of all to guide you in the right direction. Thank you Ed! You are absolutely the best!!

Heartland Home Inspections went beyond expectation. As a buyer, we don’t have any experience in home inspections and they made it very simple by explaining everything to us. The house needed a lot of repairs we didn’t know about and if it wasn’t for Ed, we would have gotten stuck paying a lot of money to get everything fixed. Thank you Heartland Home Inspections, you saved us a lot of money and we will recommend you to everyone, simply, you are the best.

Ed did an excellent job conducting a home inspection for me. He was thorough, honest, personable and he took the time to patiently answer all of my questions. I highly recommend him for your home inspection needs.

MIKE R.

Ed is a professional that is a true pleasure to work with. He masters technical house inspection inside out, documents everything to the last detail yet focuses on the essentials, he explains everything in a way that is not only easy to understand but also puts things into perspective. Excellent service overall with fast delivery of a thorough inspection report.

TIMO L.

Working with Ed was a pleasure. He was very responsive and very accommodating. Not only did he schedule me for the next day, he was also on time. The reports were also sent to me when promised. Ed is not only professional, he is very knowledgeable, detail oriented and explains everything. I highly recommended him.

PHIL C.

We had Ed Novak at Heartland Home Inspections conduct a home inspection a few weeks ago. He is very knowledgeable and thorough. During the inspection, he pointed out the issues in the house, explained them to us in easy to understand terms and what our options were to fix them. The clear and concise inspection report was provided quickly and contained detailed information and pictures. Highly recommend!

PAMELA B.

Heartland Home Inspections was great. I shadowed Ed around during the entire inspection. Being a first time home buyer and not knowing much about the process, he was able to explain and educate me and my wife with all his findings. Ed was very nice & useful and I highly recommend him.
